Happiness

Am I happy, or am I sad? Happiness, a thing better had. Sadness, nothing more than feelings, bad. My mind drifts more and more away, from my normal life, my normal day. A new form of brightness, now enters my brain, leaving me sightless of any and all pain. It is a woman, one of great beauty, with honor, respect, and a sense of duty. She takes my hand, and off we fly, a dream surrounds us as we're off into the sky. Side by side, we move along, smiling together, the start of a song. Into her eyes, mine begin to stare, the happiness and joy, I find it all there. The love and warmth I have inside, all for her, I give with great pride. The landscape below us, up here in my mind, changes quite rapidly, sending chills down my spine. I awaken in bed with a gruesome loud whine. The happiness I crave, is not at my side, I begin to rave, peering through eyes opened wide. All just a dream, oh how I wish it weren't true, that woman in my mind, is too good for you.
